take just five minutes right now to learn about all the wonderful opportunities waiting for you.

hello -

i'd like to tell you a personal story that could help you change your life.

it was just before christmas and i was scared...scared that my young son wouldn't be having the kind of christmas that i had scrimped and saved for all year long.

i had just taken most of my savings and loaned it to my two oldest sons to help them move into a new home just after thanksgiving.

so, here i was 3 1/2 weeks before christmas wondering what i could do to get at least a little money together, when my phone rang.

secret shopping saved the day!

it was rebecca, from a secret shopping company that i had submitted an online application to a month before.

she wanted to know if i was interested in completing an assignment for her that would pay about $200. she explained that a bank in my state hired her company to have a shopper go into 10 of their offices within 30 minutes of my home and pretend to open an account with them and then rate their customer service.

she said that each visit would take about 20 minutes and that the forms i had to fill out would take about 15 minutes to complete. all i had to do then was fax them to her.

oh, and she said they would pay for my mileage and send me $75 in advance in counter checks. (i had to take these in and cash them at a window and then rate that teller on customer service and bank policy knowledge.)

when i picked my jaw up off the floor i said, "i'd love to do that shop for you."

my wish came true

within 48 hours i had all the forms and my $75 in counter checks.

needless to say, i completed my assignment in three days, cashing the counter checks at three different branches and getting information about opening accounts at all ten.

i had to log my mileage from start to finish and keep mental notes of the names of tellers and customer service representatives that i dealt with. i had to remember the way the bank looked inside and out, the wait time i had in the teller line and in new accounts and finally i had to rate their overall customer service. so i didn't forget anything, after each visit i simply drove to a different parking lot out of site of the branch and filled out the required forms.

secret shoppers can take their children along. one day, my son even went with me and we had lunch together at a pizza place near one of the branches. you see i had gotten a request the day after rebecca called me in an email from a different company i had applied to asking if i'd like to get paid to go eat lunch with a guest of my choice. of course i said yes.

when i submitted all my assignments i had to send a simple invoice along with it listing my mileage and the amount they agreed to pay me per visit, minus the $75 in advance.

my invoice was for $217. two days before christmas i got a check in the mail for $245 from the company. they paid me a small bonus for completing the forms so quickly.

my christmas wish was answered and your wishes can be too!

first assignment within a week!

"i became a member on july 1st and i received my first shopping assignment last week for the espn zone in chicago. it was really fun. i faxed my report back to them that evening. they were so impressed that they have scheduled me to do another one at the same place next month. thanks a lot. this is fun!" - vanessa collins, chicago, il

here's the best news.....there are thousands of secret shopping jobs like this waiting to be filled by people just like you!

you may have heard about mystery shopping or secret shopping, but did you know that there are new opportunities posted by hundreds of companies each and every day? they are looking for people just like you to fill these assignments.

in fact, the wall street journal featured a front page story about a former investment banker who was laid off and became a secret shopper. the reporter tells how she made $300 in one day and nearly $7,000 last month. "she gets free gas, free groceries and free clothes," the newspaper reports. "when her car breaks down, she gets paid to have it repaired. she can make $75 for test-driving a land rover, $20 for drinking at a bar and $25 for playing arcade games (she keeps any winnings)."

we are happy to see that the wall street journal has confirmed what we have known for a long time.

this is secret shopping!

    yes, there are more than 300 companies that hire secret shoppers, but we only list the best ones to work for. each company has been investigated and pre-approved. you will get a detailed description of each company that also includes their phone number, address and e-mail address. there is a live link to the main page of each web site plus a link to their online application if they have one. no experience is necessary for these jobs.

    this allows members to put in their shops and then 1, 3 or 5 days before that date they will be sent an email reminding them of the assignment.

  • state wide mailing lists

    members can join and then get only opportunities in their state. this ensures that members do not get unwanted job leads for areas they cannot shop in. (washington dc and all of canada have separate lists.)

  • access to the "shopper wanted ads" directly from shopping companies.

    some companies are contracted to do the same shops every month (apartment shopping for instance). but the same shopper cannot do them twice in a row because they would be recognized. so, we have developed a shopper wanted section where companies can post these jobs for our members to see. you will be able view this section any time you wish and then contact the company about getting the job.

"moneyandshopping.com is an excellent resource that i recommend to my shoppers and anyone who is interested in the best ways to get started in secret shopping." - dawn hunt, scheduler for palm scheduling services

if i can do it, you can too.

recently i spent a great night out with my husband at a very nice restaurant and the total it cost us was $1.01 for the meal. dinner was on the company that hired me for the assignment.

i've been a prospective apartment hunter on several occasions, a possible new cell phone owner, and have eaten in many restaurants. i've bought new clothes (and yes, i got to keep them), and i've done telephone customer service evaluations. i have even visited all of my local post offices to mail packages to friends and family around the holidays to evaluate service.

and the great thing about all this is that i get paid to do it. not only that, but i get reimbursed for any money i spend during the assignment and usually get mileage too as long as i have a receipt and mileage records.

for most jobs, all i have to do is fill out a questionnaire, and my work is done! i'm asked questions like:

"did the teller smile?"
"were you invited to tour the apartment community?"
"were the restrooms clean?"
"did you perceive the food to be a good value?"

what could be easier? i am always excited to see what my next assignment will be. secret shopping has added income and a lot more fun to my life.

i know that it will enhance your life too. here's what some of our members are saying. i can't wait to hear your success story!

very sincerely yours,
